Itinerary and highlights

START

Our adventure begins with hotel pickup, then we travel for 3-housr to the town of Laya, where our ATV station is located. After enjoying a hearty breakfast, it’s time to gear up and get ready for the experience of a lifetime!

EXPERIENCE RED VALLEY

Accompanied by our expert guide, we’ll ride the ATVs uphill toward the mountains, making stops along the way for incredible photos. The scenery is breathtaking, and it’s very common to spot llamas and alpacas — we’ll even stop to get up close and take memorable pictures with them.

At the end of the ATV route, we’ll hike 20 minutes to reach the Red Valley Viewpoint, a perfect spot for stunning panoramic photos.

RAINBOW MOUNTAIN EXPERIENCE

We continue with a 40-minutes hike to reach the famous Rainbow Mountain . At the summit, take your time to enjoy the spectacular views of the Peruvian Andes, the colorful valleys, and the imposing Ausangate Glacier. This is the perfect opportunity to explore, capture unforgettable photos, and even meet friendly alpacas for the iconic Rainbow Mountain pictures.

Once we’ve soaked in the beauty, we’ll begin our return journey by ATV back to the base. From there, our private transportation will take us to a local restaurant, where we’ll enjoy a well-deserved and comforting lunch.

END OF TOUR
Our tour ends in the Main Square Cusco (City Center) between 4:30 PM and 5:30 PM.
